Isaiah 10:14-19

14 My hand has found like a nest
the wealth of the peoples;
and as one gathers eggs that have been forsaken,
so I have gathered all the earth;
and there was none that moved a wing
or opened the mouth or chirped.”
15 Shall ^athe axe boast over him who hews with it,
or the saw magnify itself against him who wields it?
As if a rod should wield him who lifts it,
or as if a staff should lift him who is not wood!
16 Therefore the Lord God of hosts
will send wasting sickness among his ^bstout warriors,
and under his glory ^ca burning will be kindled,
like the burning of fire.
17 ^dThe light of Israel will become a fire,
and ^ehis Holy One a flame,
and ^fit will burn and devour
his thorns and briers ^gin one day.
18 The glory of ^hhis forest and of his ⁱfruitful land
the Lord will destroy, both soul and body,
and it will be as when a sick man wastes away.
19 The remnant of the trees of his forest will be so few
that a child can write them down.
